A new warning in Clang 22 [1] complains that @clidr passed to
get_clidr_el1() is an uninitialized const pointer. get_clidr_el1()
doesn't really care since it casts away the const-ness anyways.
Silence the warning by initializing the struct.
This patch won't apply to anything past v6.1 as this code section was
reworked in Commit 7af0c2534f4c ("KVM: arm64: Normalize cache configuration").
